The Depot BurgIarized.

The depot at this place was brok.
EN- into on last Thursday night. The
burglars pried a panel out of the
door and entered; but fortunately
(for the owner) there was nothing
in the building they wanted. A
package OF stationery belonging to
the editor of this paper was torn
open and number of other pack
ages were opened, besides the rail
road tickets in the office were strewn
about the room, and the office
generally ransacked, but nothing
has been discovered missing. A
fine suit Of clothes was in the depot
at the time, but the robbers did not
happen 10 find it. 1T is to be hoped
the perpetrators will be Caught and
dealt with according to their Just
deserts.

ACCURACY.

Sir Stafford Northcote, who of all
men was distinguished for accuracy
and precision of statement, in let
ter addressed to a literary society OF
which he was President, spoke of ac-
curacy in a passage which we quote.
So many of us need a reminder on
thisspoint, that we recommend to
ong,9irf readers especially, the con-
sfasfafion Of the British statesman's Is
advice:
IT need not point out to you that
if it be a virtue of so great excellence
as I suppose it, we are, all Of US,
bound in our daily life to strive to
attain to it. And first I would ask
you, Does not Nature herself point
out to US how good a thing it is, by
the pleasure which the conscious
ness of it awakens in our minds ?
However, we may profess to under
value it, yet when we have executed
some work, be it of the hand or the
brain, and find that it fits in all its
parts, and that it fits its place, we
feel certain satisfaction, which is
ClSC lllou Ck lCSCahiShJ DoA
by our inner selves to the excel
lence of accuracy.
"On the other hand, consider how
an inaccurate person provokes us,
how we long to correct his mistakes,
how tiresome we think him when
by some incorrect statement he mis-
leads us and gives US the trouble of
following up wild goose-chase, or
of setting to work to rectify the con-
sequences of his blunder. Even in
trifiing matters we, upon the whole,
prefer the accurate man. The man
who can tell his story correctly with
the right names and the right facts, is
a far pleasanter man to listen to than
our friend who mixes up facts and
confuses names and forgets the point
of half his anecdotes. True, an &C.
curate man may be bore if he over
does us with his accuracy; but an in
accurate man may be, and often is,
at least as great a bore with the ad-
ditional disadvantage of being less
useful"

an officers dog than a musket car
rier-and never receive any consid-
Grafton whatever. That's why bet
ter class of men doesn't join the
army. I don't kick on the pay the
common soldier gets-$13 a month
and clothes and grub is more than
many a man with family to sup
port gets-but the things the private
puts up with are too hard to bear,
and it's a wonder that fifty officers
amt shot every year by their men.
"Of course the officers will deny
that there is any brutality in the
army; but it's there all the same, and
the men would rather a good deal be
sent to the military prison at Fort
Leavenworth than serve in the
ranks-that is good many Of them.
Why, a private darsen't speak to his
superior officer, a young cad just out
of West Point, without permission.
There's too much English snobbery
in our army. Outside the English
our army is the most exclusive aris-
tocracy in the world. It's mostly
made up officers now, anyhow, there
being an officer for every eight men
or SO. It's nearly as top heavy as
the navy and as useless. 1t supports
a lot of lazy loafers, and that's about
all it's good for. There's good men
in the army, of course, but there's
nothing for them to do but draw
their pay. Perhaps you think Pm a
little bitter, but you must remember
that I served five years in the ranks
which is worse than five years in
Joliet any time. ."-Chicago Tribune.

STATISTICS AS A REFORMER.

The application of the facts which
the statistician can gather respecting
the effect of the use of intoxicating
liquor upon those who are its vic
Tins, and Indirectly upon the COM
munity, is, at the present time, hav-
ing more influence in favor of tenn
perance and temperance legislation
than any other agency. The FEEDER
al Government has already entered
upon the work of collecting and pre-
senting statistics relative to the cost
of intoXicants to the people in this
country. Its statement, to the effect
that the people of the United States
expend annually not millions alone,
but billions-a sum greater than our
national deht-for intoxicants in one
form or another, has opened the eyes
of thousands to the Wastefulness and
evil of the drink habit, who could
not have been Influenced by the most
eloquent of appeals in favor of tenn
perance or the most violent anathe-
mas of those who hate the traffic.
Men are discussing the subject from
this standpoint who never thought Of
it before and who are not total alb
stainers. The figures presented by
the report of the Bureau of Statis-
tics have opened the eyes of thous-
ands of men to q new set of facts.
To them the grogshop is no longer
o place to be viewed with indiffer-
ence, but place which swallows up
the earnings of tens of thousands,
and gives them nothing in return
but poverty and wretchedness. Not
only does it take the money of the
victims, but makes the victims pau
pers by thousands, thereby increasing
taxation. II never thought much
of this matter until of late" said
a man a few days ago; but since my
attention has been called to it, | am
astonished at the number of men,
who may be seen in grog-shops after
payday spending their wages, while
their families are in rags and hun
GER" These are the people who suf-
fer most; and if the waste which
the grogshop causes could be placed
before the people in figures, it would
astonish people generally. Not long
since, in manufacturing town in
Rhode Island, an employer recently
paid his workmen 500 or Saturday
night in new bills, which he secretly
marked. On the following Monday
$3.50 of these marked bills were de-
posted in the bank by saloon or
grogshop keepers. This probably
was an exceptional case, but the
amount which wage earners squan-
der at the grogshops is the price of
comfort to many families-Boston
Journal.
